Artist's Comments

This portrait is Gordon Bond of Land Of Lakes, Florida. "Shiloh Jasper Green," as he refers to himself, is a member of S.A.S.S a/k/a the "Single Action Shooting Society, a national organization of quickdraw artists and shooting competitors. This portrait was done as part of a series of works that I am currently working on for my upcoming show at the Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Georgia this coming September. I met Gordon through an acquaintance at my printer's shop in Tampa, called him on the phone to inquire if he would be interested in posing for my photographer, my wife Leigh, to obtain photographic reference for a painting and was subsequently invited to an upcoming quickdraw competition in Florida near where we live. Mr. Bond was more than happy to pose as were many of his friends at the competition.

This piece is a traditional oil, on a "Claybord," Gesso-covered Masonite. The overall size is 16" x 20".

This is my favorite of your oil paintings. It's not only the expression but also the effort you put into the details here like the chain and ornaments. :thumbsup:
This looks even more amazing then the first one. I cant understand how one can be so great at this as you are.

How is this not one of the most revered peices on deviantart? This painting is of epic excellence. I love it man. And I respect Floridians too, so that's just bonus points for me.
